Star-Spangled Banner
O! say can you see by the dawn's early light What so proudly we hailed at the twilight's last gleaming. Whose broad stripes and bright stars through the perilous fight, O'er the ramparts we watched were so gallantly streaming. And the rockets' red glare, the bombs bursting in air, Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there. Oh, say does that star-spangled banner yet wave O'er the land of the free an the home of the brave.

1 baby dies every 9 minutes and 346 babies will die during this convention With The ELIMINATE Project, Kiwanis International and UNICEF have joined forces to eliminate maternal and neonatal tetanus. This deadly disease steals the lives of 60,000 innocent babies and 30,000 mothers each year. The effects of the disease are excruciating tiny newborns suffer repeated, painful convulsions and extreme sensitivity to light and touch. Imagine being unable to comfort your newborn baby as it slowly dies. To eliminate MNT from the Earth by 2015, 129 million mothers and their future babies must be immunized. This requires vaccines, syringes, safe storage, transportation, thousands of skilled staff and more. It will take $110 million and the dedicated work of UNICEF and every member of the Kiwanis family. Kiwanis and UNICEF joined forces to tackle iodine deficiency disorders, achieving one of the most significant public health successes of the 20th century. We will eliminate MNT from the face of the Earth. And in doing so, the project will reach the poorest, most neglected mothers and babies with additional lifesaving health care. The end of this one disease means the beginning of better health for so many families.
*Deceased
Come and learn how the Kiwanis family is going to save these babies!
Dawn Ignatius will conduct two forums on the Eliminate Project in the Gold Camp room Friday morning at 10:45 a.m. Saturday morning at 10:30 a.m.

Attainable: What steps will you take to reach your goal? Youve probably heard a goal without a plan is a dream. If you want everyone to take part in the campaign, make sure they have the tools theyll need to promote the Kiwanis mission. Realistic: Are you willing and able to reach this goal? Club leaders should know what growth your club is capable of and use that knowledge to set a specific and realistic goal. Time bound: How long should we work toward this goal? The contest should have a set deadline to keep motivation strong. Make it fun! Get creative with your contests. Announce contest winners and recognize their victory with a specific prize or reward. Let prospects see that you have fun at every meeting. Everyone wins in a successful growth campaign!
